Platy Soft Bottle with Closure Cap

Cheap Platy Soft Bottle with Closure Cap Review

I have been using Platypus water holders for the last 15 years as I hiked the Appalachian Trail, The Long Trail in Vermont and the Colorado Trail. Before that I used Nalgene bottles. The Nalgene bottles weigh 5 oz and the Platypus bottles weigh 1 ounce. Not much of a savings you say? Well, i carry two of the Platypus and when compared with two Nalgenes the difference in weight FOR A LONG DISTANCE HIKER is significant. Further, these Platypus bottles can be folded up, rolled up, etc to stuff into a small space. I really like the feed tube that screws onto these bottles as you will drink more water when that water nipple is right next to your mouth. With the Nalgene you have to get at it somehow from wherever it is stuffed. With the Platypus I NEVER get dehydrated. A note of caution. Once in the past 15 years I got one that had a pin hole in it so ALWAYS check the bottle before depending on it. I took it back and it was replaced with no problem. It used to be that these Platypus bottles were guaranteed for life. I do not know if that is still the case so my advice is to ask if that is important to you. So, for weight and convenience this is the solution that I have been very happy with. I think you will be also.
